Yes, I've struggled with this for a good bit of my sobriety (13 months) but it has gradually gotten better. I used alcohol to change how I felt so when I stopped my body was like ummmm what will we use now?! FOOD AND SUGAR! I had to get in tune with what I really needed emotionally that I was stuffing with food because I could no longer drown it with alcohol. Be kind to yourself and give yourself time to learn the new you. Try to replace junk with healthier options over time. Are you working a recovery program? I've also applied some recovery concepts to my addiction to sugar.
